[carrying this thread over to -users]
My current status:
- OpenGL and DRM vsync don't work because of restrictions in the intel
driver (OpenGL gives very stuttering video, DRM fails and tries the
next fallback method)
- with a patched intel driver these methods work, but I get tearing
video
- a fallback to RTC doesn't work for me out of the box, because I use
the new RTC kernel driver that seems to miss something like
/proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq
- USleep vsync has tearing video
- with a patched mythfrontend that runs setuid root and therefore can
set the RTC frequency and use RTC vsync I see no video at all
So all vsync methods fail completely or give tearing video.
Could you please enlighten me what the OSD has to do with the video?
What is a "chroma-capable Xv adapter"? Do you mean a certain XV port?
